Who is responsible to select the GC algorithm? What I'm asking is whether one should explicitly enumerate several @runs of the test with explicit selection of different GCs (which ones?) or is this a matter of some external test infrastructure that runs all the tests in the suite and pre-selects different GCs for them? ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/9533
